Blocks Predicted for the Next Epoch: 6
The three blocks we were allocated were produce with no problem and for the next epoch we have six blocks allocated which is in line with the amount of stake we have.
The pool continues to run smoothly and the KES key rotation that was scheduled for today has been rescheduled for tomorrow 22nd December due to some personnel issues. We will do this before the first block of the epoch is scheduled and then monitor the creation of that block closely to ensure the key rotation was successful.
Nothing much else to report so we will return on the 26th and we wish you all a Merry Christmas and hope you enjoy the holidays and get some well earned rest.
*– Blocks are allocated randomly each epoch based upon total stake a pool has just like a lottery. Luck refers to how many blocks were allocated to a pool against the expected blocks that the pools should produce. Some epochs (5 day periods) you will be allocated more blocks and some less but over time it should even out.

We hope you all had a great Christmas with family and friends. This epoch we produced six blocks but lost one due to a slot battle so in the end we have five blocks credited to the pool. For the next epoch we have an estimated eight blocks allocated.
We generated new KES keys which has to be done every three months and as usual after a change like this we kept on eye on the first block scheduled so that we could be sure the keys were working as intended. As with the last time we generated new KES keys the first block was a slot battle (part of the protocol is that multiple pools can be allocated one block and this is randomly decided upon) and initially we thought we had won it but after a few minutes it was clear we had not so we lost that block - this can be confirmed here, just look for the slot battle. Following this we made the remaining five blocks successfully.
As with most we have had some time off to recharge but we are still happy with the performance of the pool and don't worry we are always monitoring and have alerts setup should anything happen. Nothing else to report so we move on towards the next epoch and towards the new year - see you all in five days for a short update.

Another good epoch for the pool and delegators with eight blocks produced and for the next epoch we have an estimated four blocks allocated to us.
The pool continues to run well although we may well have to upgrade servers to more memory shortly. We are monitoring this and we will do it when necessary, but of course as we use VPS servers in the cloud this adds to our costs quite significantly as we have three servers that would need upgrading.
The latest development update is here explaining what has been worked on recently by developers.

We produced all eight blocks allocated and even won a slot battle for once ;) and for the next epoch we have six blocks allocated.
Well it was an interesting epoch with the Cardano stall where some nodes hit an exception and had to reboot meaning the network lost about 20% of the nodes for a few minutes but it self healed and carried on and no transactions were lost although some pools would have missed a few blocks. Charles Hoskinson has put out a few videos to talk about the issue here and here and of course some crypto media hyped the story to say the chain went down etc. Nothing new there!
We continue with our pool happy with it's performance. We had one issue this epoch with a relay losing its accurate time sync which we have resolved and we await the next update to the network in February.
That's all so have a great epoch and see you all in five days!

Blocks Predicted for the Next Epoch: 7
A wonderful epoch with all blocks produced even though there were some slot battles for a couple of them. For the next epoch we have an estimated seven blocks which again is above average.
Nothing more to add today, pool is running nicely and we will report back in five days at the end of the epoch.
*– Blocks are allocated randomly each epoch based upon total stake a pool has just like a lottery. Luck refers to how many blocks were allocated to a pool against the expected blocks that the pools should produce. Some epochs (5 day periods) you will be allocated more blocks and some less but over time it should even out.

Blocks Predicted for the Next Epoch: 5
Another good epoch with all seven blocks allocated produced and we even won a slot battle. For the next epoch we have an estimated five blocks.
The pool is running well and we had no maintenance during the epoch.

Progress is taking place and maybe we would all like it faster but there are many interesting projects underway - hydra, lace, input endorsers and others. So we continue to build during the bear to be ready for the next bull market.
That’s all from us for this epoch, back with a short update and the end of the next. Have a great next five days!

Well we are a bit late reporting on the end of the epoch but we delivered on the five blocks allocated and produced them all. For the next epoch we have an estimated eight blocks which is nice.
The pool is running well and we had no maintenance during the epoch.
Short and sweet update so see you in five days with a short update and we hope you have a great next five days!

Blocks Predicted for the Next Epoch: 8
A decent epoch and we produced all the blocks allocated but lost one due to a slot battle (where two pools are allocated the same block and random value decides winner). The lost block can be seen here.
Again the pools is running well and we are happy with it. This coming epoch we need to renew the KES key as this expires every ninety days. If this is not renewed then the pool will not produce any blocks so it is important and we will be monitoring extra closely the first block we expect after we change it to ensure it makes it to the chain.
Nothing else major to report so see you at the end of the epoch in five days.

Another great epoch with all eight blocks produced and again for the next epoch we have an above average allocation to the pool with an estimated ten blocks.
We are very happy how the pool is running and this epoch we rotated the KES keys which went smoothly with no issues. The plan for the next epoch is to install the new node version 1.35.6 and to start investigating the P2P setup. The P2P (Peer to Peer) network allows Cardano nodes to self discover other nodes and dynamically assign connections and backups and this is in the mainnet for the first time and we will enable this on one relay shortly for testing. Currently the node discovery is using a third party tool.
For those interested here is the latest Cardano community digest.

Fantastic epoch with ten blocks allocated and all produced. We are having a nice run of good block allocations (well there goes that now we mentioned it ;) and for the next epoch we have nine blocks estimated.
We did not manage to get to the upgrade of the node to 1.35.6 so that is on the list for this epoch along with the P2P setup of one of the relays. Other than that the pool ran smoothly.
